Hi,

I just found out you can have bullet point lists in Notes.app. I mean not just lists where you manually put a bullet point • or hyphen - in front of each entry, but an actual list that will insert a new bullet point/hyphen for each new line after pressing enter.

Here's the problem:
However, Notes.app for iOS seems only capable of that if the bullet point list was created on your Mac computer, and then synced to you iDevice via iCloud. Only then it'll automatically add -/• for each new line. If the note was created on your iDevice, it doesn't work.

So, has anyone solved this yet, or has even had the same issue?

I hope you understand what I'm trying to get at :) thanks for any input!

I'd love to see this feature too!

Seems like Notes.app hasn't been updated in a long time.

That would be great if the app allowed for the list to be created on the iOS. Unfortunately the app does not have the functionality it should. Maybe we will see this in iOS 7. You could always use pages.
